COMPANY V. CARROLL.
If, under the provisions of the
"Mine Ventilation Act" of March 3d,
1870 (P. L. 6), the owners, lessees, or
operators of a coal mine employ as
miners-boss one whom, after making
due inquiry, they have reason to be
leave a competent man, and place him
in charge of their works, their duty
under the Act is fulfilled, and they are
not liable for injuries resulted to a
miner for negligence of such mining
boss, or his assistants, in discharging
the duties allotted to them.
Such mining-boss, is not an agent
of the mine owner, nor a co-employer
of a miner, he is merely a fellow-servant
with him. His duties being
fixed by an Act of Assembly, it is not
necessary that a jury should find the
relations existing between him and
the miners. Hence, for injuries re
sulting from negligence of the mining-boss,
a miner or his representa
tives cannot recover against the com
mon employer.

tention of defrauing his creditors. On
Tuesday night Thilo claimed to have
been robbed of nearly J 1,000, but an

Torbert Ingram of East Bradford,
Chester county, killed a chicken that
was quite a curiosity. One leg was
white and the other was dark. On
cleaning this fowl Mr. Ingram was
struck witli the remarkable fact that
one-half of its body was white and the
other half a bright yellow. The divid
ing line between the two colors on the
body of the chicken was clearly de
fined. Three brothers were employed in a
Titusvilla brass room when a carboy of
nitric acid took fire, and all three of
the brothers helped to extinguish it,
two of them carying it from the room
while it was still smoking. After a
short time they .began to complain of
a soreness in the lungs, and a physician
was sent for, but in spite of all his
efforts was unable to give any relief.
One of the men is dead, one will die

Day, M. D., Ridgway, Pa,
Washington Letter.
From our regular Correspondent.
Washington, D. C, March 27, 1880.
The house has been the scene of
considerable excitement since the 22nd
over the bill proposing to amend the
tariff, It drew the lines between the
protectionists and free-traders, with
out regard to partyj and caused the
first real llllibustering of the session.
Mr. Townsend, of Illinois, introduced
the bill on Monday, but merely in
dorsed it to amend certain enumerated
sections of the Revised Statutes, upon
which the chairman referred it to the
Committee on Revision of the Laws,
instead of the Committee on "Ways
and Means, its proper place,and where
it would have gone had any protect
ionist suspicioned its real intent and
purport. On Tuesday, Mr. Garfield
accused Mr. Townsend of deception
which elicited a warm rejoinder, but
Mr. Garfield persisting in his charges
of bad faith, Mr. Townsend grew
terrible indignant, and asserted that
Mr. G., or anybody else who charged
him with deceit, was certainly not n
saint, either in actions or in words.
Mr. T. had just stated that he dared
not write tarifl' on his bill, because he
knew that would suflicc to kill it, and
he took the plan pursued in order to
get the tariff bill where it would be
acted on. Such ' inconsistent state
ments enable Mr. Townsend's oppo
nents to puncture him on every turn
and it is no wonder he lost his temper
and indulged in his Saxon epithets.
He evidently felt badly. Upon the
question of sending the bill to the
Committee on Ways and Means
filibustering ensued, for the free-traders
were determined it should remain
with its friends, but they failed, after
several days struggle, and went to
their quarters beaten men. Protect
ion has the sympathy of the House,
as the recent wrangle and deadlock
indisputable prove. On one side was
Mr. Cofl'roth, of Pennsylvania, and
the other, Mr. Blackburn. The latter
denounced Sam Randall as a traitor
to his party, to which Mr. Cofl'roth
replied that "if Mr. Randall was a
traitor to his party, he was no traitor
to his country." This little episode
was the only incident of a serious
nature occuring during the last hours
of the final session, and but for the
interposition of friends It would have
ended in blows. Aside from this,
much of the proceedings were of a
most farcial nature. A call of the
House was made, and the Sergeant-nt-Arms
brought in a score or more
of members under arrest, whose ex
cuses for being absent were often of a
most laughable nature. One recited
Tom O'Sharter, and insisted that he
was not in Tarn's "fur" condition, yet
he declined to have the contents of
the glass from which he drank ana
lyzed. Another excused himself in
Dutch, which, of course everybody
understood. Another appeared in full
dress, with white kids, etc., and said
he arrayed himself in festal attire, and
was happy in having his first oppor
tunity of catching the Speaker's eye.
These comicalities were the only
pleasant variation in the dry and mo-
lolonous chapter of the dead-lock,
with its screed of calling the yeas and
nays. As usual, there was much to
indicate that our good temperance
friends had need to convert Congress
men as well as plebeian, as there were
some members evidently greatly wear-
ed by the immense fatigue involved
in going to and fro from the floor of
the hall to some adjacent committee
room. It is almost strange how tired
some great statesman becomes under
such efforts, and yet no one dares in
sinuate that such a grand orator and
legislator was ever guilty of Noah's
weakness for wine.
The Senate has been pursuing the
even tenor of its dignified way since
our last, and cannot show that a rip
ple has disturbed its placid surface,
aside from Senator Kellogg's fiery
speech made in his own defence, in
opposition to the report of the election
committee which declared him un
seated and Spoflbrd the legally elected
Senator.
Miss Raymond, who has been
hounding Senator Hill with her il
legitimate son, has left the city, and
now we have n promise of an end of
the offensive matter. The Senator
made an affidavit, declaring his inno
cence of her charges. But as she lias
disappeared, we presume the whole
affair will only figure hereafter as one
of the many Washington scandals
which the prominence of one or the
other of the participants bring into
public notice.
It now seems that Stone, the wife
murderer, will be hung on April 2d.
The President Is disinclined to inter
fere witli the sentence, and all prepa
rations are made to swing the felon
into the next world at the appointed
time. Stone says he is resigned to
his fate, and apparently will die as
coolly as he has lived under the sus
pense of the past nine months.
A singular petition, signed by Mrs.
Spencer, Mrs. Lock wood, and other
leading woman's righters, has been
presented to the Scuate. It prays
that the punishment of rape may be
followed by the emasculation of the
ravisher, because of the difficulty in
volved in securing the sentence of
death. We fear that it will be fur
easier to have a man hanged than
maimed. Since torture was abolished
as a punishment for crime, the world
seems to have grown averse to disfig
urement of any kind.

"A Story of Sontlicrn Military Prisons'

THOUSAND COriES HOLD nKFORE ONE
WAS PRINTED A GRAPHIC 8TORY
OF A PRIVATE SOLDIER'S EXPERI
ENCE IN RICHMOND, ANDERSON
VILLE, SAVANNAH, MILLEN, HLACK
SHEAK, CHARLESTON AND FLOR-,
ENCE.
No book since "Uncle Tom's Cabin"
has had the tin parulelled success that
has attended the publication in the
form of a copiously illustrated volume
of a series of articles that run through
the Toledo Blade last year under the
title of "Andersonville ; a Story of
Southern Military Prisons." Such
was the Interest aroused by the subject,
and the faclnating manner in which
it wa9 treated than the mere an
nouncement, that the sketches were
to be reproduced in book form was
sufficient to bring in orders for more
than 20,000 copies before one was
printed, and though the volume lias
been upon the market now less than
four months, the sales have nearly
reached 40,000, with every prospect
that that figure will be doubled or
trebled before the year is out. Cer
tainly no book ever sold itself to the
extent that this one has, because the
efforts to Introduce it anywhere have
been of the slightest, and In much the
greater part of the country none what
ever have been made.
There is a deep facination in the
subject of Andersonville, for that Gol
gotha, in which lie the whitened bones
of 13,000 gallant young men, represent
to them very much of the dearest and
costliest sacrifice of the war for the
preservation of our national unity.
It is a type, too, of Its class. Its more
than hundred hecatombs of dead re
present several times that number of
their brethren, for whom the prison
gates of Belle Isle, Danville, Salis
bury, Florence, Columbia and Catawba
opened only in eternity. There are
few families in the North who have
not at least one dear relative or friend
among these 00,000 whose sad forture
it was to end their service for the
Union by lying down and dying for
it in a southern prison pen. The
manner of their death, the horrors
that clustered thickly around every
moment of their existence, the loyal
unfaltering steadfastness with which
they endured all that fate brought
them has never been adequately told.
It was not with them as with their
comrades in the field, whose every act
was performed in the presence of those
whose duty it was to observe such mnt
ters and report them to the world.
Hidden from the view of their
friends in the North by the impene
trable vail which the military opera
tions of the Rebels drew around the
so-called Confederacy, the people
knew next to nothing of their career
or their sufferings. Thousands died
there less heeded even than the hund
reds who perished on the battle Held.
Grant did not lose as many men,
kiled outright, in the terrible cam
paign from the Wilderness to the
James River 43 days of desperate
fighting as died in July and August
at Andersonville. Nearly twice as
many died in that prison as fell from
the day that Grant crossed the Rapi
dan, till he settled down into the
trenches before Petersburg. More
than four times as many Union dead
lie under the solem, soughing pines
about that forlorn little Village in
Southern Georgia than mark the
course of Sherman from Chattanooga
to Atlanta. The Nation stands aghast
at the expenditure of life which at
tended the two bloody campaigns of
1SC4 which virtually crushed the Con
federacy, but no one remembers that
more Union soldiers died in the rear
of the rcble lines than were killed in
front of them. The great military
events that stamped out the Rebellion
drew attention away from the sad
drama which Starvation and Disease
played in the gloomy pens in the far
recesses of somber Southern forests.
The author begins with an account
of the raid made into the enemy's
country by the cavalry command in
which lie was serving as an enlisted
man. They meet the Rebel cavalry,
and alter a sharp fight, worst it badly,
sending it flying from the field. For
a while the Union cavalry live oft' the
fatness of the land, but at length they
are trapped in a narrow valley, and
after a desperate resistance, are all
captured, and sent to Richmond. Two
months of hardship and exposure on
Bell Isle, and in the tobacco factories
end by their being sent to Anderson
ville the author arriving in the first
squad that entered the pen. Then en
sues six months of terrible suffering,
in which four or five of those around
hiin died. This is ended by the fall of
Atlanta, immediately upon which the
Rebels, fearful of the safety of so great

The author Is first taken to Savan
nah; after a short stay there, to Milieu:
thence to Savannah again; thence to
Blackshear, where he is paroled and
sent back to Savannah again, osten
sible to be exchanged, but really to

take them to Florence, 8. C, where

Into this warp and woof of daily-
history are woven numberless bits of
fascinating description of thrilling
incidents, and even laughable episodes
for there was fun, even in that
dreary experience. Among the most
thrilling recital to be found anywhere
is that of the story of the fights with
and the capture and execution of the
"Haiders" a baud of jnurdcrouh des-
perados who infested the prison, and
six of whom were hanged in tcrro
rem, and as a punishment for their
multifarious offenses. This is theoniy
full and accurate account of this
noteedpisodethathas ever been writ
ten. Many versions have been given of
this, but they have been written by
men who were misinformed as to the
real facts in the case. The author,
being one of the very few of those
now living who were actively identi
fied with the affair from first to last,
has exceptional knowledge of that of
which he speaks.
Letters from more than 3,000 sur
viving prisoners testify in the strong
est terms to wonderful accuracy of the
book. Such a testimonial unfleckt
by a single dissent from any living
prisoner Is one of the marvels of
current literature.
The press has been no less kind to
the book than the general public, and
it lias received the highest eulogiums
from political, religious and literary
papers, which unite in saying that
for vividness of description, realism
of detail, and fascination Of style it
has no equal in the literature of the
war.
The book contains G56 large, hand
somely printed pages, illustrated with
1"4 pictures drawn under the author's
supervision. Published at Toledo, O.,
